Ark Proposal.
Project: SC Nimitz

Hello everybody. As we all know, people are bringing in their proposals on their Arks. I am here now, to show my proposal on my Ark design. I call my Ark, the SC Nimitz.

The name “Nimitz,” is based off the American aircraft carrier USS Nimitz, the largest in the world.
My Nimitz is long, straight and very tall. It has a nuclear reactor which its power goes into five main thrusters at the bottom of the ship. external image dbriKZdqdk9x-yy9QHTu2HlLA8hRTCs3tbG7Puk-lY6pE0dqvUzkhUFLbxEXbAi5wpnoduSopKlswpVlh6mMEsC85wxOVU0DujfAq3NS6Fu0RRFLqKc

It must carry a fifth of the human race.
She has five main components. Her engine, the cargo hold, the room for toilets and the cafeteria, the passenger area and the cockpit. She has many small features such as Escape pods, chairs that can fold into beds and Emergency space suits. There are even anti-ship missiles and laser cannons, incase there is hostile life beyond Earth’s solar system. The Nimitz is made from Titanium and Aluminium. The glass used for windows are thick enough to be bulletproof but the crew still have all around visibility. The passengers must wear a sort of jump suit so if there is an emergency, they can quickly put on a proper space suit and oxygen tank.
Here is a table of all the other features.

Name:
S.C. Nimtz.
Length:
Approximately 79945.23 metres.
Height:
24456.39 metres.
Width:
Approximately 4652, 664, 88, 9
Number of passengers:
1.4 billion.
Cargo:
All supplies needed by all Districts.
Landing system:
Ark will land upright with piston powered stabilisers to stop the ship falling over.
Materials used for main body:
Aluminum and Titanium.
Materials for heat shield:
Titanium for shield on the outside of the engine.
Other notes:
If needed, certain modifications will be able to be added to the Nimitz.



So that is my proposal on my Ark, the S.C. Nimitz. We all hope that we will reach Aurora 56z. May gods luck be with us all.external image xp4PnR_Dt6hmgls9YuioB9nrTAZ7yCnutypB8e_ZXvXhLXj2u5viRK41kw63FFxaxG1lCM5U2WAPn2fLARH_vHphNYYBXIedjurjTvzkR-uFyCMgkPM

Last day on Earth diary entry.
Things have been going quite smoothly on Earth, until today. Today is launch day and people from all over the world are getting excited. People in the Districts are getting anxious, worried that something will go wrong. But I'm already in the Ark, running tests and checking various other things. I see and hear planes landing at airports, full of passengers wanting to get on board the Arks. I suddenly wonder to my self. With 1.4 billion passengers on just one of these rockets and if something would go wrong, so many people would be at risk.

Later, the countdown began. "5, 4, 3, 2, 1, blast off!" The captain said over the radio. I looked out the my window. I saw lots of smoke and the ground was becoming smaller the further we sawed into the air. I couldn't wait to arrive on Aurora56z.

Why I built it:
27/11/12
Finished windmill 1 and
started windmill 2.
I am from Industry and am building a
Wind power plant. I'm using this idea
because it is a sustainable eco-friendly
power source.
29/11/12
Put doors on work house,
continued staircase and made
ladders in windmills.
Because we need a building to work in,
we need a staircase to get up and in real
life there are stairs to get to the top of windmills.
I have not been updating
the log lately but I have been
doing a lot on Minecraft. Here
is what I have been doing since the
last log:
Added glass pains to workhouses,
changed staircase to set of ladders
and built three new columns for holding up
the farm.
Because a set of ladders is easier to build than a
spiral staircase, glass pains looks more professional
on the workhouses and we need more support to hold up the
farm.
5/12/12
Started building windmill 3.
Because we need more power.
6/12/12
Finished windmill 3, finished windmill 4 and
started security fence.

Today I built a second floor for the warehouse and
continued on the fence. Sorry that the video has no sound
and that sometimes there are long pauses in it.

Which power source do you believe is the most sustainable? Why do you think wind power is a good option? Can you tell me more information about wind power?
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I think that wind power is a good option because turbines create powerful electricity that is sustainable and it is eco-friendly because it doesn't give off terrible gases into the air.
